Consuming Pain

My plate
piled high with pain
seasoned to taste
engaged in the gorge
as the dog waits
for crumbs of me
to hit the floor

she is so
loyal.

Very imaginative Maureen. It is sad but that's alright. Very concise and tight yet over flowing with emotion as well. "Engaged in the gorge" is delightful. Well done. Have a wonderful night. Earl
